Transport Canada recalls
02- Suspension#2017173
4,539 units affected
On certain vehicles, the left rear wheel bearing hub locking bolts may not have been properly torqued during assembly. This could cause the bolts to loosen and break, which could allow the wheel assembly to move outwards from the axle housing. If this occurs, the vehicle could become more difficult to control and braking distances would increase which could result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and tighten the rear left wheel bearing hub locking bolts as necessary.
- Electrical#2013212
743 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with an oil pan heater, over time, dust, dirt and moisture may collect at the contact point between the oil pan heater cord and the extension cord. As a result, the extension cord could overheat, which may melt the oil pan heater plug and/or block heater plug (if equipped). This could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and clean the oil pan heater plug and the engine block heater plug (if equipped). Heat damaged plugs will be replaced. In addition, dealers will replace the extension cord and advise owners to store the cord indoors when not in use.
